Taking its point of departure from Bill Readings's work and from his critique of the university, this article examines the possibility of contemporary intellectuals' mobility and playfulness in circulating knowledge. First, the criticism and strategic solutions offered by Bill Readings prompt a return to the theory of the event (Lyotard, Veyne, Koselleck, etc.); second, they force us to ask ourselves whether, despite the principle of "play" they draw on, these strategies wholly escape ideology, with play also potentially containing the possibility of its own tyranny.

La stratégie vise à augmenter les capacités militaires de ses alliés, peu importe la nature de leur régime, et, simultanément, à renforcer la présence américaine dans la région pour contrer le terrorisme. Nous avons alors analysé la réinsertion de cette région dans le discours de la menace américain en ayant recours à plusieurs concepts issus de l'approche constructiviste critique. Plus spécifiquement, nous nous sommes demandé de quelles pratiques représentationnelles cette stratégie avait émergé. Afin de fournir des éléments de réponse à cette question, nous avons étudié les représentations des États-Unis, du système international et de la Corne de l'Afrique …
